Chapter 21: Questioning

The breeze is shaking, the grass is fragrant, the tender green branches and leaves are spreading, and the greenery is flourishing. Pan Dao led Ling Qing, Yun Ting, and Wang Yuyan back to their own cabin, looking at each other and looking at each other without saying a word.

After a long time, Ling Qing spoke again, "Brother Dao, it was inconvenient for you to say just now, and now there are no outsiders here, what the hell is going on." ”

Yun Ting stranded the hair on her forehead and asked indifferently, "Daozi, let's talk about it." Why does Ding Chunqiu want to find you alone?" she sat down at random and unceremoniously poured herself a glass of water.

Pan Dao frowned, as if he was very dissatisfied with Yun Ting's questioning, but it was said that he was also Wu Xingyun's person, so he really couldn't make a fuss. motioned for everyone to sit down around the round table, "Ding Chunqiu wants me to send an envoy to the Five Poisons Sect to take back the Shenmu Wang Ding for him." ”

"Shenmu Wang Ding, one of the Three Treasures of the Stars, wasn't it taken by Ah Zi. Could it be that Ah Zi ......" Ling Qing reacted immediately, and she looked at Pan Dao worriedly.

"Not bad. Ah Zi was still caught by Liu Qian, and he is currently in the Five Poisons Sect. Fortunately, Ding Chunqiu didn't understand the meaning of Shenmu Wang Ding, otherwise he was afraid that it would be another monstrous disaster. Pan Dao nodded with a headache, thus explaining Ah Zi's whereabouts.

Yun Tingqiao's face turned cold, and she asked with a thin frown, "Isn't the Shenmu Wang Ding one of the Three Treasures of the Star Sect, used to practice poison skills and heal wounds?

Ling Qing also looked at Pan Dao in confusion, even Wang Yuyan, who was not shocked, was also aroused by interest, and pricked up her ears curiously. Pan Dao sometimes really wants to slap himself, isn't it okay to find it. Fortunately, those present were also on the same front, and they were not worried that they would reveal their secrets. Of course, this secret will soon spread all over the rivers and lakes, but Pan Dao doesn't care, as long as he hides it from Ding Chunqiu first.

"Shenmu Wang Ding is a part of Shennong Ding, which is said to be the heirloom of Emperor Yan in ancient times, and it contains Emperor Yan's martial arts "Shennong's Materia Medica". It's just that Shennong Ding has long been lost from the Five Immortal Sect. and the world does not know, so it is not revealed. Until Xiaoyaozi, the patriarch of the Xiaoyao faction, snatched back the Shenmu Wang Ding from the Five Poisons Sect, it was a pity that Xiaoyaozi also did not find another part of the Ding. Later, you also knew that the Xiaoyao faction split, and the Shenmu Wang Ding also fell into the hands of Ding Chunqiu, and the treasure was dusted from then on. Pan Dao recounted slowly, as if talking about a trivial matter.

Yun Ting didn't ask Pan Dao why he knew these secrets, in fact, it was already very good that Pan Dao could tell him honestly. However, Wang Yuyan asked with some concern, "Since the Shenmu Wang Ding is so important, how can the Five Poisons Sect hand it over to you." ”

As soon as this statement came out. The people in the hut fell silent for a moment. Yes, the Shenmu Wang Ding is so important, how can the people of the Five Poisons Sect return it to Ding Chunqiu.

Ling Qing was a little worried, she clenched Pan Dao's hand, "Brother Dao......" Pan Dao didn't wait for her to finish, patted the back of her slender hand, "Anyway, I have to go to the Five Poisons Sect." For the sake of Ah Zi, I always have to face this matter. What's more, soon, the secret of the Shenmu Wang Ding will spread all over the rivers and lakes. At that time, Ah Zi is afraid that his life will not be saved. ”

The Great Song Palace, with the empty commotion, the dragon qi is more and more unstable, if it weren't for the fact that the Empress Dowager Gao, who is like a Dinghai Divine Needle, is not dead, she is still sitting in Cining Palace. Otherwise, I am afraid that the entire Great Song Dynasty will fall into turmoil.

Zhuge was walking through the palace, he quickly followed Zhu Tian to Cining Palace, looking at the calm steps of the little eunuch in front of him, and Zhuo'er's figure and temperament. couldn't help nodding secretly, obviously the other party's internal strength had already stepped into the first-class realm.

"Little Brother Zhu, the old man thinks that your internal strength is not bad. In just one year, you have achieved great cultivation, which shows that you are extremely talented, and you will be able to step into the top of the realm in a few days. In the future, I can't enter the innate world, but I don't know if the little brother intends to serve in the Six Gates?" Zhuge Zheng started my love for talents, and couldn't help asking.

Zhu Tian smiled and said modestly, "God has been rewarded, Zhu Tian is just a little eunuch, where can he still enter the six doors for work." Besides, Zhu Tian's achievement is also the result of the Empress Dowager's full cultivation, in fact, if you really want to talk about it, Zhu Tian's martial arts are much worse than Huang Gongzi in Huang Shang, so it is better to look for Huang Xianggong. Zhu Tian thinks he is more suitable than our family. ”

Zhu Tian's expression was a little gloomy, but he disappeared in a blink of an eye, but politely refused, and warmly recommended Huang Shang. Zhuge Zheng didn't expect that his recruitment would be rejected again, and I couldn't help but doubt the charm of my character. Zhuge Zheng is congenital in the end, and he has his bearing as a god, and said abruptly, "The hero doesn't ask where he comes from, and Little Brother Zhu doesn't need to be humble, since you don't want to, forget it." Anyway, in the palace, we are all doing things for the Queen Mother, and you and I are actually the same in essence. ”

Zhu Tian was slightly embarrassed, and staggered the topic, "Zhuge Shenhou, let's hurry up." I think the Queen Mother is also waiting for it. Zhuge Zheng nodded to me and said quite intimately, "It's okay, Little Brother Zhu is leading the way." The two of them hurried for a while, and they arrived at Cining Palace in a short time.

"Empress Dowager, Zhuge Shenhou is here. Zhu Tian replied respectfully, he stood aside with his head down, looking a little nervous. Empress Dowager Gao forcibly propped herself up, Empress Dowager Huang couldn't help but hurry over to support her, and Princess Zhao Jiyue was helping beside her, Gao sat on the bed, even if she couldn't stand, but she was still in the world.

"Hurry up, please Lord Zhuge . "The Empress Dowager Gao's decree. Zhu Tian retreated and invited Zhuge Zheng and me in. I saw Zhuge Zheng and I performed the courtier salute, "The minister has seen the Empress Dowager Gao, the Empress Dowager Huang, and the princess." ”

The Empress Dowager Gao hurriedly offered her grace, "No need to be polite. Then she looked to the right and left, and commanded, "Come, give me a seat quickly." After a while, someone brought a chair. Zhuge Zheng and I couldn't help but half-sit down under the signal of the Empress Dowager Gao.

"Zhuge , what's going on with the battle of Shaolin, why didn't that kid come back with you?" The Empress Dowager Gao waved away all the palace maids, she was a little displeased, she paid more attention to Pan Dao's information than anyone else, after all, Pan Dao seemed to hold the secrets of the Great Song Dynasty for a hundred years, and he was the princess's possible husband and the savior of the Great Song Dynasty.

Zhuge Zheng and I hurriedly got up, the Empress Dowager Gao shook her hand, signaling him not to be polite, and then said, "Back to the Empress Dowager, that kid is not willing to accept the help of my Great Song Dynasty, judging from the fact that I have recruited him twice, it seems that there is some resistance to the court." The people of the rivers and lakes are in the rivers and lakes, and it seems that the kid has not regarded himself as an ordinary person in the Great Song Dynasty. ”

"Since ancient times, this has been true for all those who practice martial arts. Chivalry is forbidden by martial arts, and people in the rivers and lakes have always wanted to override the court, although the official can control them, but if they want to do things for the court, it will be even more difficult. Empress Dowager Gao was very open-minded, and then she asked instead, "What's going on with the Five Poisons Sect, why has the information about Shenmu Wang Ding in the news you passed on has spread on the rivers and lakes, and that kid still seems to have something to do with it?"

Zhuge Zheng said without hesitation, "It should be the righteous sister he brought up since he was a child and it has something to do with it, Shenmu Wang Ding was stolen from the Xingzhu Sect by Ah Zi, and the Five Poisons Sect wanted to get back what belonged to them, but Ah Zi didn't hand it over, so he found Pan Dao." ”

Empress Dowager Gao thought for a moment, "This palace doesn't want to care about this, I just want to know his safety, can your six doors guarantee it? If not, then raise troops to destroy the Five Poisons Sect." The court army will either not move, or if it wants to move, it will be ruthless, and it just happens to let Shaolin, Xixia Yipintang, Tantra, Tufan and other forces take a look. ”

Zhuge Zheng smiled bitterly, and admired the courage of the Empress Dowager Gao, but once the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty were dispatched, I was afraid that the generals of the rivers and lakes would never have peace. What's more, the Liao State and the Western Xia could not mobilize the soldiers and horses of the Great Song Dynasty, and they had to guard against it.

"Back to the Empress Dowager's words, that kid is fine, he chose to return to the Star Sect in front of everyone, although he exposed his weaknesses and offended all parties. But it is precisely this that has brought a balance between the forces of all parties, after all, no one wants to be besieged by the major forces in this sensitive period. As for the Five Poisons Sect, I don't think they will kill him, Feng Tianyao, this woman is a smart person, if she wants to destroy the Loose Sect in one fell swoop, Pan Dao is a good pawn. ”

"Hmm. Empress Dowager Gao couldn't deny it, and looked left and right, "The mourning family is a little tired, so you should all step down." After listening to Zhuge Zheng's analysis, she put down a lot of heart, and as soon as her spirit was relaxed, she was naturally a little tired.

The crowd didn't dare to say anything, and they retreated one after another. Empress Dowager Huang was about to tidy up for Empress Dowager Gao, but saw Gao said, "Don't be busy, this palace still wants to be quiet first, you are also tired, go out with Xiao Yue'er." "Empress Dowager Huang couldn't say anything, and she wanted to retire when she led Zhao Jiyue.

Zhao Jiyue saluted, "Grandma, that Yue'er will retire first." You have a good rest. Empress Dowager Gao smiled, "As long as you are filial, go and rest." ”

Cining Palace fell silent instantly, and after a while, Empress Dowager Gao's eyes suddenly opened, and a figure came back from the shadows, and that person was the short and fat god Zhuge Zhengme. (To be continued......)
